More involved after quiet debut Jackson generated two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Hull City.

Impact Jackson made his second straight start for Villa at Hull and was far more involved than on his debut against Arsenal, where the best defence in the league gave him nothing to feed on. The striker managed two shots and created another chance, and although he is still waiting on his first goal contribution since the move, his ability to hold the ball up and bring others into play showed why he walked straight into the side after Ollie Watkins departed.

Bukayo Saka’s Lone Goal Keeps Arsenal Undefeated In Premier League

AUGUST 28 • BEINSPORTS.COM

Transfers to Aston Villa Jackson has completed a transfer to Aston Villa from Chelsea, according to his new club.

Impact Jackson was heavily linked to a move away from Chelsea the past few weeks, and it has finally taken place, with the forward joining Aston Villa. This relieves Chelsea of one of their numerous forwards while giving Villa a new option to start at forward, with Ollie Watkins appearing to already have one foot out the door. This will likely allow Emiliano Buendia to move back to more of a midfield role in future games while Jackson and Tammy Abraham duke it out for starting minutes at forward.
